    the engine light, the tire light, and the light sensor activated on the panel, and the AC stopped working
    Dia C.

    SCAM ALERT!!! Stay away from this place!! A few months ago, Greg sold me a 2013 VW that seemed to be in great condition, along with an additional extended warranty! However, it has only been a NIGHTMARE since then. Initially, they made numerous errors on my title, including misspelling my name three times. Then, the engine light, the tire light, and the light sensor activated on the panel, and the AC stopped working. Greg made me drive all the way to his shop multiple times, assuring me that the car was in perfect condition and that I had nothing to worry about. Since then, I have visited two different mechanics, and they both agree that my car was sold to me in horrible condition. It is so rusty that it is dangerous to drive! It is literally falling apart (photos attached). I am now facing $7,000 worth of repairs, and the 'expensive' warranty they made me buy does not cover any of it. I cannot believe I trusted these people with my safety!! Run, run, run...!! Greg has a charming personality, but do not get fooled! These people are professional scammers. I'm sure that all the good reviews are from his family members, who happen to be the mechanics right next to his shop.

    Their website says they're open 10-6 on Saturdays, but apparently they close at 3. Don't waste your time.

    I had a great experience working with Rick at DriveWise. I had already done quite a bit of research…read moreon my own and gave him a short list of EVs I was considering. He found the cars in the trim levels I wanted, and once I decided on the one I wanted at a monthly payment and down payment that worked for me, he took care of everything. What I especially appreciated was how he handled my existing lease. He was able to get me out of it early, saving me my final payment, the lease turn-in fee, and some repairs I would have been responsible for at turn-in. He also found that I had positive equity in the car--something I honestly never would have thought to look for on my own. The whole process was easy, straightforward and took away all of the usual dealership back-and-forth. I'm very happy with my experience and would definitely work with Rick and DriveWise again.

    In March 2022, after an auto accident when my car was totaled on the 101 Freeway in Los Angeles, I…read morerented cars for a couple of years before buying a new one. I decided to move to Arizona and needed a van. I called Enterprise Auto Sales in Reseda California and spoke with the manager. She said she could pick up a 2018 Dodge van with 22,225 miles on it from their Long Beach location. I love this van, it has served my relocation purposes well driving back and forth to Los Angeles six times...four years later I only have 44000 miles on it and will be using for hauling items pickup and delivery. The manager was more than efficient in getting the van to me within one day. The financing was fast and if the same management is as effective as in 2022, I definitely will purchase my next van here since I may be moving back to L.A. not definitively sure, yet. What is really impressive is the five year extended warranty through March 2027...I hope the warranty will be five years on the next purchase.

    I just want to let you know you have lost customer for life, including all my friends and family…read morealso. What's sad is my father, who passed away, swore by buying cars from you. Sadly I was quite sheltered by my father for long time, and I didn't learn about a lot that I'm learning now in adulthood, and there you guys are to take advantage of someone like me... Your agent Mica, in Reseda CA is awful, and dishonest in my opinion...I've had to learn more on my own about car in 2 months, things that should have been told to me. I've had to call Tesla, and sit on hold for hours, and go to service center, let alone trying to self teach, cause she had to nothing offer about things I needed to know about using vehicle. Also, I know you guys lied and sold me car with huge crack in windshield that was found by tinter, and massive curb rash I had to fix on two wheels...Not to mention, all the technical, and app stuff Mica failed to mention at all, and how to setup and of it, which is required...On top of that giving me a loan with a subprime loan company in Westlake Financial and not being honest about how bad their reputation is, is trash. I already canceled your scam gap, and refinanced loan for under 6% gap for half the price. I will never buy another car from you, and now I can't trade into Tesla cause of negative equity right now being what it is. Your liars in my opinion, and Mica is a good one in my opinion, at lying il give you that. I didn't know questions to ask until after owing and driving car, and she knew it and took advantage. I'm also now, cause of Mica ignoring me, and my complaints about her, filing complaint with state AG as well as BBB. You've lost all my respect. Your managers at Reseda also are covering for Mica, and ignoring issue in my opinion, cause clearly dishonesty is your policy. Dale the area manager won't even respond, you all run away at the slightest criticism. You've lost my entire family and friends as customers for life... I also now have to wrap car for $3k as there r so many severe paint chips Mica and you guys purposely in my opinion, were not honest about, and if u had any integrity u would pay to wrap car with my trusted guy....Cause I would trust nobody u work with...But u won't cause u have no integrity, I mean u lied and deceived me right to my face to make sale in my opinion...I feel truly deceived and taken advantage of...

    If there were more stars I would give them! I absolutely HATE car shopping and when it came time to…read moreturn my lease in, I was dreading looking for a new one. I was dealing with a specific dealership and the back and forth was bringing grey hairs out of me. On a chance outing to dinner, I ran I to a girlfriend of mine and saw she had the same car I was in process of getting. I asked her what deal she got and I was shocked. WAYYYY less than what I was fighting for! She told me to call her guy! I was hesitant because I'm not too familiar with car brokers and was a little nervous. She assured me it was the best decision. I called Kia at Autograph leasing and immediately felt at ease with him. He was SOOOOO attentive and accommodating and most importantly, got me a GREAT deal!! Way better than what I was originally anticipating from that other STUPID DEALERSHIP. I did absolutely nothing in this process, he negotiated and called me with the final results. I showed up the day of the pick up, he had the guy from the dealership there to show me the car and it's features. I signed the paperwork and was out in twenty mins. Are you kidding me? I wish I had 10cars to buy from him lol. Way too easy. My experience was so great I want to song from the mountains. Thank you Kia and Autograph Leasing! I look forward to doing more business with you.

    Let me start this off by telling you......I am a retired Auto Dealer from Colorado......now living…read morein Arizona. I retired when the auto industry really became a 3 ring circus. I still have to buy cars from time to time and I understand why going to the dentist is more desirable than buying a car. This particular car was for informal desert trailing, etc now that I live in Bullhead City, AZ across the river from Laughlin, Nevada. Bullhead City is very small and limited on vehicles that are available locally, so I knew I would have to shop on the internet in a 200-300 mile radius and then sort through all the hype and BS from the normal 21st Century auto dealerships. What a surprise I got when I connected with Auto Union in Reseda, California! If you are looking for a used car, truck, van, SUV....check this dealer out. It will be worth your time to go out of your way to get to know them! This is a dealership you can definitely trust. All of their vehicles are 100% as advertised. I bought a 20 year old Jeep Liberty from Shawn...over the phone....sight unseen! It is immaculate! I live in Arizona...300 miles away. I found this vehicle through internet searches on Carfax. A perfect one owner vehicle....with Carfax to prove it. So, I made the phone call to check it out. After a short phone conversation about the vehicle, I asked for the 'out the door price'....expecting the normal $1000-$1500 in add-ons and fees and the back and to with the 'manager' for 8 hours. THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN! The advertised price WAS the PRICE! I didn't even make a counter offer!!!! What a great dealer to know! Where the price is the PRICE! Shawn even assisted in getting it shipped to my front door! The whole deal took 2 phone calls and 30 minutes! When you find a dealer like Auto Union and Shawn who is straight-up and don't.....agree on a price.... and then hijack you for phony title fees, tracking devices, paint protection........YOU DON"T HAVE TO NEGOTIATE.......it's already a GREAT DEAL. Everyone needs a good doctor, good attorney and GOOD CAR DEALER......AUTO UNION IS YOUR CAR DEALER!!!!

This was for my…read moreson... after 9k in repairs the engine was declared dead and needed replacement - I gave it to a salvage yard. Background : purchased a car from this PoS for 9500 - check engine light came on 10 min after I signed. Understand buying used car is a crap shoot - but cleaning a leaky engine and resetting cel and selling it is straight fraud. Took it to a GTI mechanic these are the problems he found - CEL due to oil leaking into cylinders replaced engine head - $3500 Dead clutch Slave pump - $3200 AC fan dead, replaced - $450 other electrical failures due to leaking oil into harness - $675 Last straw, engine burning oil - like 1qt a day - after spending $400 for diagnosis and bore scope I decided to send it to salvage and got $2000 Lesson learned for me and my 17 year old son, who spent his $6000 that he earned doing summer job into this. I drive a 20 year old manual as my daily - so I knew the risks but didn't expect fraud. Stay away from this guy.
